Consider that maybe your process is not as neutral as you think and quotas make the company more successful because otherwise the process is failing. You can still pick the best candidates from underrepresented groups.
Consider that there are also whole system effects where by hiring more diverse groups, more talented people are willing to apply to your company in general, contributing a little to a virtuous cycle.
Consider the fact that there is some literature showing that more diverse companies perform better, and people's diverse perspectives may be useful outside their individual contributions.
Also consider that passively waiting for resumes to come in is not your only option, you could go out and explicitly engage with underrepresented groups and find people who you would like to hire.
